Background: One of the substances with a high potential of damaging that nowadays is used widely in industry and human environment is LPG gas cylinders. Aim: The purpose of this study is modeling the consequences of gas leakage in domestic cylinders containing LPG (Liquefied petroleum gas). Subjects and Methods: The factors affecting discharging and emissions of LPG gas in 26, 60, 78 and 107 liter cylinders were described. ALOHA software was used as one of the best software for modeling gas emissions from tank storage, and emergency response program was presented at the time of the gas leakage based on modeling results. Results: The results showed that in all 4 types of examined cylinder up to distance 11 meters around the tank of LPG gas, concentration of gas is 33000 ppm. This area is lo.. Read More»
